LUCIER – Douglas Harvey, 82, of Liverpool, Nova Scotia, passed away peacefully at Queens Manor with his wife Linda by his side on Friday, December 21, 2018.
Born in Big Point, Ontario, he was the son of the late Valerie (St. Pierre) and Edas Lucier. He was raised in Stoney Point, Ontario.
Doug joined the Royal Canadian Navy and first arrived in Liverpool while his ship was in refit. He met and eventually married Linda. They were loving partners for 60 years. Doug owned and operated many businesses in Liverpool with Linda. Over the years Doug often volunteered at local community events and was quick to help anyone in need. Doug loved playing sports, including bowling, golfing and curling. After retirement he spent many winters in Florida and Spain, with the second love of his life, the sun. Doug was always trying to make people laugh and had many sayings which his children, grandchildren and friends continue to use today.
Doug is survived by his loving wife Linda (Mansfield), daughter Nicole of Liverpool; son René (Krista) of Bedford and his grandchildren Niam Lucier; Georgia Lucier; and Quinn Lucier. His sisters June (William) Bell of Haines City, Florida; and Diane Bechard of Haines City, Florida. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, and friend to everyone.
Cremation has taken place under the direction of Chandlers’ Funeral Home, Liverpool. There will be no service at this time as requested. Online condolences may be made to www.chandlersfuneral.com.
A special thank you to the staff at Queens Manor for their loving care and support during his time there. Also, the family would like to extend their sincerest gratitude towards the many volunteer entertainers that performed over the years at Queens Manor. Your efforts truly enriched his life.
Donations may be made to Queens Manor or a donation of your time to comfort a resident senior in your local care home.
And Doug would say, “Night, night, termite.”

Dear Linda and family,
So very sorry to hear about Doug. If my memory is correct, we met him in the bowling alley in the early sixties. He was an usher at our wedding in 1965, and laid carpet in our home in the seventies…where has the time gone! Sending deepest sympathy to all of you at this very difficult time.
Sincerely, Barbara Burns.

Justine & Gregory
Dear Mrs. Lucier,
We never had the pleasure of meeting your Doug in the flesh, but we’ve had the good fortune of experiencing his positive influence in the world through your big-hearted, fun-loving and devoted daughter Nicole. I imagine a lot of who she is and how she interacts with the world can be traced back to you both.
We are sorry and sad about your loss and hope you are comforted knowing that his reputation as a kind, decent and fun-loving human-being lives on. “Night-night Termite” speaks volumes to his kindness and loving wit. May you find strength in your beautiful memories. I’m certain he will continue to protect you in mysterious ways.
Lots of love and sincere condolences,
Justine & Gregory
Beryl Hatt

Diane and Donald White
Linda and family , sad news that you have had to say goodbye to your much loved husband and father. We always found him to be kind and a happy soul in the early and late years. His health didn’t diminish his spirit. How lucky he was to have had you all to love and care for him. Queens Manor is truly a special home for our loved ones also. Bless him.
Lynn Kempton-Lowe
My dear, sweet Linda and family,
I was so sorry to hear about Doug’s passing and my heart goes out to you, Nicole, and Rene. As we go through life we meet many people and some are just faces and names, while others remain in our hearts for years to come. Doug was one of those people and so are you, Linda.
What can I say that will comfort you and your children at this time that hasn’t already been said many times over? Those who knew Doug already know what a special husband, father and friend he was and how unfair it seems for him to be taken from you when you all needed him so much.
Yours was a special kind of love and others could easily see that. It was the kind of love that we all dream of and you both have passed that love on to your children, which speaks for itself.
Doug fought a battle that we all knew would take him in the end, but he fought it bravely and you can be very proud of him for that. Now his spirit has been set free and he will live on in your hearts forever.
Cherish your happy memories and know that he would want you to smile (and yes, even laugh) at some of the funny things that he would do or say. Thank God for the good years that you had together and remember Doug with love.
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
Lynn xoxo
